Strictly partners Dan Walker and Nadiya Bychkova 'raise eyebrows' at TRIC Awards


They spent six months dancing closely together but it's commonplace for Strictly Come Dancing partners not to remain friends after the BBC show wraps, often they don't speak again.

But the Channel 5 presenter, 48, who has been married to Sarah for more than 24 years, did make time to go and see his former dance partner among the crowd of diners which included the likes of podcast hosts Pete Wicks and Sam Thompson. Attendees at the event hosted at the Grosvenor Hotel in London on Tuesday said audiences were left ‘cringing’ with Dan’s constant references to the dancer during his presentation speech. He opened the ceremony by saying ‘Have we got Nadiya in the house’ despite the room being filled with some of the biggest stars on television and radio including Rylan Clark and Angela Rippon.
